I have a question about opencl - is it possible to make the GPU do all the rendering? My 750Ti is perhaps 10 times faster than then CPU. The difference is most evident in the Equalizer module GPU renders the whole image under 0.1 sec and the CPU takes over 1 sec to render the preview. I believe if the GPU did both, the response times would be much better.

good luck
Are you sure your system is reliable to begin with? Many vague reported issues turn out to be failing computers. Does memtest report any issues if run for several hours? Does your disk report SMART errors?
Also please install the darktable-dbg package, then if you experience a crash, please look in /tmp for a backtrace ("bt") file, which you can report in our Redmine:
http://darktable.org/redmine/issues
Please include exactly what you were doing when the crash happened.
http://darktable.org/redmine/issues/10382
Summary, we will support the D7200 at some point in the not so near future, since we can't reliably support it quite yet.
Great work. Thank you.
When will be this version available to download on Linux Mint 17 repository?
Thanks!
